why?

Given that 16% of the sample (from relocate.me) is from India, and Indians have virtually no path to PR in the US, I'm guessing residency.

Europe (at least the technocratic level) has been pro immigration for a while, so network effects probably also enter the equation.

lol no. I had been there for 2 years and the place was crazy racist towards blackish people. A big no from me.

I moved to Denmark and yes, it's out in the open. I'm a white Australian and I can still see it, granted I have a lot of international friends here.

Second this. Straight forward Immigration policy. Pay taxes, take language test and in 2/3 years you get a PR. 7, for a citizenship.
